Chapter 928: Why Couldn’t My Mother Come!
At this time, Han Xue sneered again, not intending to hide her inner disgust at all.
“He Xiyan, I’m not against you coming to see Xixi, but I hope you won’t come back to my house next time. If you want to see your daughter, I’ll send her to you.” Han Xue said in a deep voice. She used two words– “my house”, indicating that she was the hostess of the castle.
Xia Jingshu smiled awkwardly. She held out her wrinkled hand as if intending to hold the hands of her daughter-in-law in front. However, He Xiyan stepped back and avoided.
She didn’t like such pretense of intimacy.
“Xiyan…” Xia Jingshu paused and said awkwardly, “Han Xue is outspoken. Don’t worry. Well, if you want to see Xixi later, just call me. I’m still the old number. Do you remember? I’ll ask someone to send Xixi over. You appear in the castle like this, if the media photographs you, there will be much gossip. You don’t want to be obsessed with the media, do you? ”
Xia Jingshu said so euphemistically, but her words indeed made the listeners feel disgusted.
He Xiyan frowned, a trace of unhappiness flashing through her eyes. But just as she was about to speak, she heard her daughter’s roaring voice:
“Grandma, this is my castle. Why can’t my mother come here?” Xixi said angrily, two small hands all clenched into small fists. Her facial expression also changed from happiness to fury.
He Xiyan was stunned, somewhat surprised that Xixi should say so, and was even more surprised that Xixi would protect her mother whom she hadn’t seen for several years.
She chuckled and looked at Xia Jingshu, a person she once respected very much, but now she didn’t need to.

“Aunt Xia, I remember that I once revised the divorce agreement and let Xixi inherit this house. Then is it inappropriate for me to come to my daughter’s house?” He Xiyan asked in return, frowning with a hint of unhappiness.
Xia Jingshu was embarrassed, looking at He Xiyan with some kind of avoidance in her eyes. Finally, she didn’t speak. It was true that the house was her granddaughter Xixi’s. It was a fact.
Han Xue, on the other side, held her fingers tightly, and her nails were almost pressed into her palm. She bit her teeth, and her face was covered with hatred.
She still couldn’t accept the fact that the castle had become Ye Zixi’s.
He Xiyan looked at Han Xue again. Seeing her surging with anger, she had figured out the woman’s thoughts at the moment. She was simply afraid that she would come back and steal the man’s heart.
“Miss Han.” He Xiyan sneered and said, “If I were you, I would not have said such stupid words. Besides, you don’t have to be so alert around me. I just came to see my daughter. As for the person you care about, I don’t want to see, and there’s no need to see in this life. What are you afraid of? ”
He Xiyan’s voice was low, but firm. She, however, didn’t name her ex-husband clearly because she didn’t want her daughter to know and she didn’t want to see her father.
“You don’t want to see him?” Han Xue frowned. There was obvious doubt and disbelief on her face.
He Xiyan said, “Of course… Otherwise, why I don’t contact him directly.”
(Han Xue)…
Han Xue was caught off guard for a while. She stood there, slowly loosening her tightly clenched fingers and then immediately clenched them again. What she worried about was not whether He Xiyan could find her husband or not, but whether her husband would go find this woman.
That was what worried her the most.

Katalepsis
For Heather Morell, nightmares and hallucinations lurk around every corner, relics of schizophrenia and childhood bereavement. Until she meets Raine and Evelyn, that is — self-proclaimed bodyguard and bad-tempered magician — and learns she’s not insane at all. The spirits and monsters she sees are all too real, the god-thing in her nightmares is teaching her how to surpass human limits, and her twin sister who supposedly never existed could still be alive, somewhere Outside, beyond the walls of reality. Heather plunges into a world of eldritch magic and fanatic cultists, trying to stay alive, stay sane, and deal with her own blossoming attraction to dangerous women. But being ‘In The Know’ isn’t all terror and danger. Sometimes the monsters wear nice dresses and stick around for afternoon tea. Sometimes you find you have more in common with them than you think. Perhaps this is Heather’s chance to be something more than the defeated husk she’d grown up as, to find real friendship and meaning among things like herself - and perhaps, out there on the rim of the possible, to bring her twin sister back from the dead.
